A Muscular Christian.

cleveland Leader.
A few weeks ago tho whole town of Edin boro
Pa, was by the ears over the liquor question.
The temperance element won the fight, and not
a single license was granted in the place The
Rev. w. w. Dale, Methodist minister, was &C.
tive in the fight, and was particularly aggressive.
Quincy Biggers. proprietor of the Biggers Hotel,
and who was among the disappointed applicants
made some very offensive remarks about Mr..
Dae's course. Mr.. Dale went to Mr.. Biggers
TO demand retraction. whereupon the irate
liquor man turned to and proceeded to give the
preacher q drubbng Mr. Dale when a college
boy was recognized athlete. and was very
clever with the mitteus. Thesassault opened mp
his college days, and he sailed in. But for the
desperate interference OF tho neighbors Biggers
would have been friehrfully injured AS it was
no was q badly whipped man. When the par
son got on to his muscle he invited the whole
lifuor element to come into the alley. but they
wkived their claims to pugilistic honors The
congregation over which Mr.. Dale presides was
so much pleased over their minester's DISPOSE
ton of the matter that they proceeded to raise
his salary.

Dakota's Laws.
st. Paul Globe.


It is just beginning to be realized in Dakota
that the last Legislature entrusted a very re-
markable discretion to a couple of individuals
in authorizing recodification Of the laws of the
territory. One of these parties is clever
newspaper man and the other commonplace
nttorney-neither with special qualifications for
the work. They authorized to rummage all
the statutes ever enacted and clip out such por-
tions az they think should be allowed to stand
and construe all doubtful seeming conflicting
provisions and after their report is made to and
accepted by the Governor it shall be accepted by
the courts 40 the laws of the Territory. These
two men are virtually put above both courts and
Legislature. The task Of the Governor to pass
upon their work is an onerous and delicate one,
and will. doubt prove safeguard against
cay romantic perversion Of legal principles.

There are, however, ways and manners in
different places which may be truly and accur-

tries and their cities it has been my habit TO
walk about good deal. and in doing so it has
been interesting to observe differences in what
may be called outdoor or street manners These
differ very widely in the various States and 10

very peculiar nature is reported from Washing
ton Territory Frank Paine, superintendent OF
the penitentiary, received order yesterday TO
discharge j. j. Harland. convicted year ago OF
swindling and sentenced to several years in the
penitentiary. The jury which convicted Har-
land was composed of women. An appeal WIS
taken from the decision of Judge Hoyt, before
whom the case was tried TO the Supreme Cour&
The higher court in it's findings declared that
women were not legal jurors. and that Harland
was illegally held a prisoner. The case was
sent back TO the lower court. and the prisoner
was ordered discharged. This precedent may
involve ve-y important results.
